Applications of BBa_K104001
The part was cloned into the Bacillus integration vector pJWV1012 upstream of both gfp and mCherry.
It was then integrated into the chromosome of Bacillus subtilis 168.
We showed that 168 was able to sense the levels of subtilin quorum communication peptide (SpaS product) in the external media.
The part can therefore be used as a generic sensor for subtilin mediated communication between Gram positive bacteria.
An ideal addition would be a resistance brick. Without the resistance genes, subtilin will kill Bacillus subtilis 168, causing cell lysis at high concentrations.
